Customers who are need to pay for CA-PDSMAN or SEA PDSFAST just to get acceptable performance when supporting large environments may disagree about IEBCOPY not being broken.

Also, IEBCOPY might have been a good vehicle for testing/experimenting with those wonderful new interfaces. Certainly, there is no technical reason in the world (at least I don't know of one) why a functionally identical could not be written that did not require authorization... It's probably a matter of "It ain't broke, so for god's sake don't fix it!"
